Accordingly, the suffixes“module” and “unit” may be mingled with each other.

FIG. 1 is a view illustrating a watch object displayed on a mobileterminal.

Referring to FIG. 1, the mobile terminal 100 may display a watch object400 as a lock screen or a standby screen.

In FIG. 1, it is illustrated that the watch object 400 is displayed on adisplay unit 151.

Although the watch object 400 may have various shapes, FIG. 1illustrates the watch object 400 as having a circular shape.

The watch object 400 may interwork with a plurality of scheduleinformation, a plurality of applications, or combinations thereof.

That is, the watch object 400 may include a plurality of scheduleinformation, may include a plurality of application items, or mayinclude a plurality of schedule information and a plurality ofapplication items.

FIG. 1 illustrates that a first application item 425 a is associatedwith and displayed at a first region 420 a between 7:00 AM to 8:00 AMand a second application item 415 a is associated with and displayed ata second region 410 a between 9:00 AM to 12:00 AM.

FIG. 1 illustrates that the first application item 425 a is a trafficrelated application item and the second application item 415 a is an SNSapplication item.

For example, when a current time reaches 7:00 AM in a state in which thewatch object 400 is displayed as a lock screen or a standby screen, atraffic related application corresponding to the first application item425 a may be automatically executed and a traffic related applicationscreen may be displayed on the mobile terminal 100. Alternatively, whena current time reaches 9:00 AM in a state in which the watch object 400is displayed as a lock screen or a standby screen, an SNS relatedapplication corresponding to the second application item 415 a may beautomatically executed and an SNS related application screen may bedisplayed on the mobile terminal 100. In this way, a reservedapplication may be directly executed even without a user input, whichmay enhance user convenience.

In another example, when a current time reaches 7:00 AM in a state inwhich the watch object 400 is displayed as a lock screen or a standbyscreen, an alarm message that indicates whether or not to execute atraffic related application corresponding to the first application item425 a may be automatically output via vibration, audio or video. Then,as the corresponding traffic related application is executed in responseto a user input, a traffic related application screen may be displayedon the mobile terminal 100. Alternatively, when a current time reaches9:00 AM in a state in which the watch object 400 is displayed as a lockscreen or a standby screen, an alarm message that indicates whether ornot to execute an SNS related application corresponding to the secondapplication item 415 a may be automatically output via vibration, audioor video. Then, as the corresponding SNS related application is executedin response to a user input, an SNS related application screen may bedisplayed on the mobile terminal 100. In this way, user convenience maybe enhanced.

As described above, user convenience may be enhanced by setting aplurality of applications in the watch object 400 so as to interworkwith the watch object 400.

On the other hand, for example, when the first region 420 a in the watchobject 400 is selected by a user touch input, first schedule informationbetween 7:00 AM and 8:00 AM corresponding to the first region 420 a maybe output via vibration, audio or video. As a result, the user cansimply and rapidly check the first schedule information.

In another example, when the second region 410 a in the watch object 400is selected by a user touch input, second schedule information between9:00 AM and 12:00 AM corresponding to the second region 410 a may beoutput via vibration, audio or video. As a result, the user can simplyand rapidly check the second schedule information.

In addition to the first region 420 a and the second region 410 a, thewatch object 400 may further include an hour hand, a minute hand, and aday and night object 405 representing daytime and nighttime.

The day and night object 405 may include a daytime object 405 arepresenting daytime and a nighttime object 405 b representingnighttime.

The daytime object 405 a and the nighttime object 405 b may be separatedfrom each other by the hour hand, or may be separated from each other bythe first region 420 a or the second region 410 a that interworks withschedule information or an application.

The first region 420 a and the second region 410 a, which are associatedwith different pieces of schedule information, may be separated fromeach other by, for example, different colors or brightnesses.

Meanwhile, in the case where the watch object 400 is displayed as a lockscreen, the lock screen may be released as at least one of numbers (1 to12) in the watch object 400 is selected. Specifically, when a specificpattern of numbers is pushed, the lock screen is released and a homescreen may be displayed.

On the other hand, in a state in which the watch object 400 is displayedas a lock screen, an unlock screen may be displayed when the usertouches a region except for the watch object 400 in order to release thelock screen. For example, when it is attempted to release the lockscreen via input of numbers, a number input window may be displayed. Inanother example, when it is attempted to release the lock screen viafacial recognition, a camera may be operated and a display window fordisplaying an image captured by the camera may be displayed.

Setting of schedule information and setting of a related applicationwill be described below with reference to FIG. 5A and the followingdrawings.

FIG. 2 is a block diagram of the mobile terminal illustrated in FIG. 1.The mobile terminal according to an embodiment of the present inventionwill be described below with reference to FIG. 2 in terms of constituentelements based on functions of the mobile terminal.

Referring to FIG. 2, the mobile terminal 100 may include a wirelesscommunication unit 110, an audio/video (A/V) input unit 120, a userinput unit 130, a sensing unit 140, an output unit 150, a memory 160, aninterface unit 170, a controller 180 and a power supply unit 190. Whenthe aforementioned components are implemented in actual applications,two or more components may be combined into a single component or asingle component may be divided into two or more components as needed.

The broadcast receiving module 111 may receive at least one of broadcastsignals and broadcast related information from an external broadcastmanagement server through broadcast channels. At this time, thebroadcast channels may include, for example, satellite channels andterrestrial channels. The broadcast management server may mean a serverthat produces and transmits at least one of broadcast signals andbroadcast related information, or a server that receives at least one ofpreviously produced broadcast signals and broadcast related informationand transmits the same to the terminal.

The broadcast signals may include not only TV broadcast signals, radiobroadcast signals and data broadcast signals, but also broadcast signalsin the form of TV broadcast signals or radio broadcast signals combinedwith data broadcast signals. The broadcast related information may meaninformation related to broadcast channels, broadcast programs, orbroadcast service providers. The broadcast related information may beprovided through a mobile communication network and, in this case, maybe received by the mobile communication module 113. The broadcastrelated information may be present in various forms.

The broadcast receiving module 111 receives broadcast signals using avariety of broadcast systems. More particularly, the broadcast receivingmodule 111 may receive broadcast signals using a digital broadcastsystem such as, for example, a digital multimedia broadcastingterrestrial (DMB-T), digital multimedia broadcasting-satellite (DMB-S),media forward link only (MediaFLO), digital video broadcasting handheld(DVB-H), and integrated service digital broadcasting terrestrial(ISDB-T). In addition, the broadcast receiving module 111 may beconfigured to be suitable for all broadcast systems providing broadcastsignals as well as the aforementioned digital broadcast systems. Thebroadcast signals and/or the broadcast related information receivedthrough the broadcast receiving module 111 may be stored in the memory160.

The mobile communication module 113 performs transmission and receptionof radio signals with at least one of a base station, an externalterminal and a server on a mobile communication network. Here, the radiosignals may include voice call signals, image call signals, or varioustypes of data based on text/multimedia message transmission andreception.

The GPS module 119 may receive location information from a plurality ofGPS satellites.

The A/V input unit 120 serves to input audio signals or video signalsand may include a camera 121 and a microphone 123, for example. Thecamera 121 processes an image frame such as, for example, a still imageor a moving image that is acquired by an image sensor in a video callmode or an image capture mode. In addition, the processed image framemay be displayed on a display unit 151.

The image frame processed by the camera 121 may be stored in the memory160, or may be outwardly transmitted through the wireless communicationunit 110. Two or more camera 121 may be provided according to one aspectof a configuration of the terminal.

The microphone 123 receives an external sound signal, for example, in acall mode, a recording mode, or a voice recognition mode and processesthe received sound signal into electrical voice data. Then, in the caseof a call mode, the processed voice data may be converted into andoutput in a form that is transmittable to a mobile communication basestation through the mobile communication module 113. The microphone 123may utilize various noise removal algorithms to remove noise generatedupon receiving the external sound signal.

The user input unit 130 generates key input data that is input by theuser to control operation of the terminal. The user input unit 130 maybe configured into, for example, a key pad, a dome switch, or a touchpad (static pressure/electrostatic), which is capable of receiving acommand or information input by a user push operation or touchoperation. In addition, the user input unit 130 may be configured into,for example, a jogwheel or other jog type means based on rotation of akey, a joystick, or a finger mouse. In particular, when a touch pad islayered onto the display unit 151 as described below, this may be calleda touch screen.

The sensing unit 140 senses a current state of the mobile terminal 100such as, for example, an opened/closed state of the mobile terminal 100,a position of the mobile terminal 100 and the presence of a user touch,and generates a sensing signal to control an operation of the mobileterminal 100. For example, when the mobile terminal 100 takes the formof a slide phone, the sensing unit 140 may sense whether the slide phoneis opened or closed. In addition, the sensing unit 140 may serve tosense, for example, whether power is supplied from a power supply unit190 and whether the interface unit 170 is coupled to an external device.

The sensing unit 140 may include a proximity sensor 141, a pressuresensor 143 and a motion sensor 145, for example. The proximity sensor141 may detect, for example, the presence of an object that approachesthe mobile terminal 100 or the presence of an object that is presentnear the mobile terminal 100 without mechanical contact. The proximitysensor 141 may detect a proximate object using, for example, variationin alternating current (AC) magnetic field, variation in static magneticfield, or a rate of variation in capacitance. Two or more proximitysensors 141 may be provided according to one aspect of a configurationof the terminal.

The pressure sensor 143 may detect, for example, whether pressure isapplied to the mobile terminal 100 and the magnitude of the pressure.The pressure sensor 143 may be installed to a portion of the mobileterminal 100 where detection of pressure is required according to ausage environment. When the pressure sensor 143 is installed to thedisplay unit 151, according to a signal output from the pressure sensor143, a touch input through the display unit 151 and a pressure touchinput that applies a greater pressure than the touch input may bedistinguished from each other. In addition, according to a signal outputfrom the pressure sensor 143, the magnitude of pressure applied to thedisplay unit 151 upon a pressure touch input may be detected.

The motion sensor 145 senses, for example, motion or a position of themobile terminal 100 using, for example, an accelerometer or a gyrosensor. The accelerometer, which may be used in the motion sensor 145,is a device that converts variation in acceleration in any one directioninto an electric signal. The accelerometer is extensively used as amicro electro mechanical system (MEMS) technique is developed.

By way of example, there are various kinds of accelerometers such asthose built in an air bag system of a vehicle in order to measure alarge value of acceleration used for detecting a collision and thoseused in games as input means in order to measure a small value ofacceleration by recognizing a small operation of the human hand. Theaccelerometer may typically include two axes or three axes componentsmounted in one package, or may require only one axis (for example, az-axis) component according to a usage environment. Accordingly, in someapplications, when an X-axis or Y-axis accelerometer, other than aZ-axis accelerometer, needs to be used, an additional substrate segmentmay be used to vertically mount the accelerometer on a main substrate.

In addition, the gyro sensor serves to measure an angular velocity andmay sense an orientation (angle) deviated from a reference direction.

The output unit 150 serves to output an audio signal, a video signal, oran alarm signal. The output unit 150 may include the display unit 151, asound output module 153, an alarm unit 155, and a haptic module 157, forexample.

The display unit 151 displays and outputs information processed in themobile terminal 100. For example, when the mobile terminal 100 is in acall mode, the display unit 151 displays a user interface (UI) or agraphic user interface (GUI) related to a call. In addition, when themobile terminal 100 is in a video call mode or an image capture mode,the display unit 151 may display a captured or received image separatelyor simultaneously and display a UI or a GUI.

Meanwhile, as described above, when the display unit 151 and a touch padare layered with each other to constitute a touchscreen, the displayunit 151 may be used as an input device that enables input ofinformation by a user touch, in addition to being used as an outputdevice.

When the display unit 151 takes the form of a touchscreen, the displayunit 151 may include a touchscreen panel and a touchscreen panelcontroller, for example. In this case, the touchscreen panel is atransparent panel attached to the exterior of the mobile terminal 100and may be connected to an inner bus of the mobile terminal 100. Whenthere is a touch input during contact result observation, thetouchscreen panel transmits corresponding signals to the touchscreenpanel controller. The touch screen panel controller processes thesignals and transmits corresponding data to the controller 180 in orderto allow the controller 180 to recognize whether there is a touch inputor which area of the touch screen is touched.

The display unit 151 may be configured into e-paper. E-paper is of areflective display type and has excellent viewing characteristics liketypical paper and ink such as a high resolution, a wide viewing angle,and a bright white background. E-paper may be implemented on anysubstrate such as, for example, a plastic or metal substrate, or paper,may continuously display an image even after power is shut-down, and maycontribute to extension of the battery life of the mobile terminal 100owing to elimination of a backlight power source. A hemispherical twistball charged with electrostatic power, an electrophoresis micro capsule,or the like may be used as e-paper.

The sound output module 153 outputs audio data received from thewireless communication unit 110 or stored in the memory 160 in, forexample, a call signal reception mode, a call mode, a recording mode, avoice recognition mode, and a broadcast reception mode. In addition, thesound output module 153 outputs a sound signal of a function performedin the mobile terminal 100, which relates to call signal reception soundand message reception sound. The sound output module 153 may include,for example, a speaker and a buzzer.

The alarm unit 155 outputs a signal for notifying the occurrence of anevent in the mobile terminal 100. Examples of an event occurring in themobile terminal 100 include call signal reception, message reception,and key signal input. The alarm unit 155 outputs a signal for notifyingthe occurrence of an event in a different format than an audio signal ora video signal. For example, the alarm unit 155 outputs a signal in avibration form. When a call signal or a message is received, the alarmunit 155 may output a signal for notifying the reception. In addition,when a key signal is input, the alarm unit 155 may output a signal as afeedback on the key signal input. A user may recognize the occurrence ofan event through a signal output from the alarm unit 155. A signal fornotifying the occurrence of an event may be output through the displayunit 151 or the sound output module 153 in the mobile terminal 100.

The haptic module 157 generates various haptic effects that a user canfeel. A representative example of haptic effects generated by the hapticmodule 157 is vibration effect. When the haptic module 157 generatesvibration as haptic effect, the intensity and pattern of vibrationgenerated by the haptic module 157 are convertible and differentvibrations may be combined and output, or sequentially output.

In addition to the vibration, the haptic module 157 may generate varioushaptic effects such as, for example, an effect by stimulation due to anarrangement of pins that vertically move with respect to a skin contactsurface, an effect by stimulation due to injection power or suctionpower of air through a nozzle or suction inlet, an effect by stimulationdue to rubbing against a skin surface, an effect by stimulation due toelectrode contact, an effect by stimulation due to static electricity,and an effect by cold and warm sense reproduction using a heatabsorption or radiation device. The haptic module 157 may deliver hapticeffects through direct contact and may be implemented to provide hapticeffects through muscle sense such as, for example, a user's finger orarm. At least two haptic modules 157 may be provided according to oneaspect of a configuration of the mobile terminal 100.

The memory 160 may store programs for processing and control of thecontroller 180 and may function to temporarily store input or outputdata (for example, a phonebook, a message, a still image, and a video).

The memory 160 may include at least one type of storage medium among aflash memory type, a hard disk type, a multimedia card micro type, acard type (for example, SD or XD memory), a RAM type, and a ROM type. Inaddition, the mobile terminal 100 may manage web storage for performingthe storage function of the memory 160 on the Internet.

The interface unit 170 serves as an interface with all external devicesconnected to the mobile terminal 100. Examples of an external deviceconnected to the mobile terminal 100 include a wired/wireless headset,an external charger, a wired/wireless data port, a card socket (forexample, a memory card, a Subscriber Identification Module (SIM) card,and a User Identity Module (UIM) card), an audio Input/Output (I/O)terminal, a video I/O terminal, and an earphone. The interface unit 170may receive data from such an external device or power and then transmitthe same to each component in the mobile terminal 100, or may transmitdata in the mobile terminal 100 to an external device through theinterface unit 170.

When the mobile terminal 100 is connected to an external cradle, theinterface unit 170 may be a path through which power from the connectedcradle is supplied to the mobile terminal 100, or a path through whichvarious command signals input by a user from the cradle are transmittedto the mobile terminal 100.

The controller 180 typically controls an operation of each of theabove-described components in order to control overall operations of themobile terminal 100. For example, the controller 180 performs controland processing operations related to, for example, a voice call, datacommunication, and video call. In addition, the controller 180 mayinclude a multimedia playback module 181 for multimedia playback. Themultimedia playback module 181 may be configured into hardware in thecontroller 180, or may be configured into software separated from thecontroller 180.

Moreover, the power supply unit 190 may receive external power orinternal power according to control of the controller 180 in order tosupply power necessary for operations of the respective components.

The mobile terminal 100 having the above-described configurationincludes a wired/wireless communication system and a satellite basedcommunication system in order to be operable in a communication systemthat is capable of transmitting data through a frame or a packet.

The controller 180 may control the home screen 300 such that the watchobject 401, the application list 310, and the preferred application list320 are displayed in the home screen 300.

When the user touches the first region (a region between 7:00 and 8:00)or the second region (a region between 9:00 and 12:00) of the watchobject 401 with the user's finger 205, the controller 180 may controldisplay of corresponding schedule information.

When a current time reaches a specific time (7:00 or 9:00), thecontroller 180 may automatically execute an application item, linked tothe first region or the second region, and display an executedapplication screen on the display unit 151.

The controller 180 may display the watch object 401 such that aplurality of regions, each of which is associated with at least one ofschedule information and an application, is distinguished from the otherregions. This may assist the user in simply and rapidly checkingschedule information or in executing a corresponding application.

Next, FIG. 5B illustrates that the watch object 400 is displayed on thedisplay unit 151.

The controller 180 may control the watch object 400 so as to bedisplayed as a lock screen or a standby screen.

The controller 180 may control the first region 420 a and the secondregion 410 a, which are associated respectively with different pieces ofschedule information or different application items, so as to bedistinguished by, for example, different colors and brightnesses.

In a state in which the watch object 400 is displayed as a lock screenor a standby screen, when the user touches the first region 420 a (aregion between 7:00 and 8:00) or the second region 410 a (a regionbetween 9:00 and 12:00) of the watch object 400 with the finger 205, thecontroller 180 may control display of corresponding scheduleinformation.

On the other hand, when a current time reaches a specific time (7:00 or9:00) in a state in which the watch object 400 is displayed as a lockscreen or a standby screen, the controller 180 may automatically executean application item, linked to the first region 420 a or the secondregion 410 a, and control to display an executed application screen onthe display unit 151.

Meanwhile, in a state in which the watch object 400 is displayed as alock screen, when there is an input for selecting at least one ofnumbers (1 to 12) in the watch object 400 in order to release the lockscreen, the controller 180 may control the lock screen so as to bereleased and the home screen 300 so as to be displayed as exemplarilyillustrated in FIG. 5A.

On the other hand, in a state in which the watch object 400 is displayedas a lock screen, when the user touches a region except for the watchobject 400 in order to release the lock screen, the controller 180 maycontrol display of a screen for unlocking. For example, in the case ofunlocking using numbers, the controller 180 may control display of anumber input window. In another example, in the case of unlocking viafacial recognition, the controller 180 may control a camera so as to beoperated and a display window for displaying an image captured by thecamera so as to be displayed.

Next, FIG. 6A illustrates the case where time has passed as compared toFIG. 5B and a time indicated in the watch object 400 reaches 7:00corresponding to a start point of the first region 420 a.

In a state in which the watch object 400 is displayed as a lock screenor a standby screen, the controller 180 may control output of an alarmmessage via vibration when a current time reaches a specific time (seveno'clock) corresponding to the first region 420 a.

FIG. 6B illustrates output of vibration 601.

Meanwhile, when a current time reaches a specific time (7:00)corresponding to the first region 420 a in a state in which the watchobject 400 is displayed as a lock screen or a standby screen, thecontroller 180 may control an application, corresponding to the firstregion 420 a, so as to be displayed and a shortened message, indicatingthe executed application, so as to be displayed while outputting analarm message via vibration.

In particular, the controller 180 may control the shortened message soas to overlap with and be displayed at the first region 420 a.

FIG. 6C illustrates the case where the first application item 425 acorresponding to the first region 420 a is executed and a message 422 arelated to a bus arrival time such as “five minutes ago” is displayed asa first application is executed. As a result, the user can directlycheck a current time and a message related to an applicationcorresponding to the current time while viewing the watch object 400.

Meanwhile, when a current time reaches a specific time (7:00)corresponding to the first region 420 a in a state in which the watchobject 400 is displayed as a lock screen or a standby screen, thecontroller 180 may control the first application, corresponding to thefirst region 420 a, so as to be executed and a first application screenso as to be displayed.

FIG. 6D illustrates the case where a traffic related applicationcorresponding to the first application item 425 a is executed and anapplication screen 605 is displayed.

The application screen 605 may include, for example, an estimated busarrival time, current position information, bus number information, anda map image 607.

In a state in which the watch object 400 is displayed as a lock screenor a standby screen, when a current time is a time after the firstregion 420 a, the controller 180 may control the first region 420 a soas to disappear. Alternatively, the controller 180 may control a firstregion so as to be distinguished from that in the case where a currenttime is a time before the first region 420 a.

Next, FIG. 6E illustrates that time has passed as compared to FIG. 6Band a time indicated in the watch object 400 reaches 8:30 that is laterthan an end point of the first region 420 a.

As exemplarily illustrated in FIG. 6E, since the current time (8:30) islater than a first region 430 a (a region between 7:00 and 8:00), thefirst region 430 a is displayed at a lower brightness or a lighter hueas compared to FIG. 6B so as to be distinguished from that in FIG. 6B.

That is, the first region 430 a and a first application item 435 a ofFIG. 6E may be displayed differently from the first region 420 a and thefirst application item 425 a of FIG. 6B.

When a current time reaches a specific time (9:00) corresponding to thesecond region 410 a in a state in which the watch object 400 isdisplayed as a lock screen or a standby screen, the controller 180 maycontrol output of an alarm message via vibration 601.

FIG. 6F illustrates that time has passed as compared to FIG. 6E andvibration 601 is output when a time indicated in the watch object 400reaches 9:00 corresponding to a start point of the second region 410 a.

Meanwhile, when a current time reaches a specific time (9:00)corresponding to the second region 410 a in a state in which the watchobject 400 is displayed as a lock screen or a standby screen, thecontroller 180 may control a second application, corresponding to thesecond region 410 a, so as to be executed and a second applicationscreen so as to be displayed.

FIG. 6G illustrates that an SNS related application corresponding to thesecond application item 415 a is executed and an application screen 615is displayed.

The application screen 615 may include a conversation window 617.

In a state in which the watch object 400 is displayed as a lock screenor a standby screen, when a current time is a time later than a portionof the second region 410 a, the controller 180 may control thecorresponding portion so as to be distinguished from FIG. 6F.

For example, in a state in which a third region 430 c is present between8:00 PM to 10:00 PM, when a current time is a time later than a portionof the second region 410 a, the controller 180 may control the thirdregion 430 c so as to be displayed in the watch object 400.

That is, the controller 180 may control a region related to a nextschedule or application item so as to be successively displayedaccording to the lapse of time.

FIG. 6H illustrates that, based on a current time (10:00), a secondregion 410 c is reduced in size and the newly added third region 430 cis displayed.

The third region 430 c is a region between 8:00 and 10:00 and may berelated to a schedule or an application item between 8:00 PM and 10:00PM. FIG. 6H illustrates that a third application item 435 a is displayedin the third region 430 c.

Meanwhile, in a state in which the watch object 400 is displayed as alock screen or a standby screen, when a current time is an end point ofthe second region 410 a, the controller 180 may control the secondregion 410 a so as to disappear.

Meanwhile, the controller 180 may control a fourth region 440 a, relatedto a next schedule or application item, so as to be displayed at aposition where the second region was displayed.

FIG. 6I illustrates that, based on a current time (12:00), the secondregion disappears and the third region 430 c and the newly added fourthregion 440 a are displayed at a position where the second region wasdisplayed.

The fourth region 440 a is a region between 11:00 PM to 12:00 PM and mayinclude a fourth application item 445 a.

When a current time reaches a specific time (11:00 PM) corresponding tothe fourth region 440 a in a state in which the watch object 400 isdisplayed as a lock screen or a standby screen, the controller 180 maycontrol an alarm message S1 so as to be output via vibration S1.

FIG. 6J illustrates that, based on a current time (11:00 PM), thevibration message S1 related to the fourth region 440 a is output in astate in which a third region disappears and a first region 420 d and asecond region 410 d are displayed.

Meanwhile, when a current time reaches a specific time (11:00 PM)corresponding to the fourth region 440 a in a state in which the watchobject 400 is displayed as a lock screen or a standby screen, thecontroller 180 may control a fourth application, corresponding to thefourth region 440 a, so as to be executed and a fourth applicationscreen so as to be displayed.

FIG. 6K illustrates that a phone call application as the fourthapplication is executed and a phone call application screen 625 isdisplayed. The phone call application screen 625 may include an image627 of the other party.

Meanwhile, although FIGS. 6A to 6K illustrate that a related applicationis automatically or manually executed at a reserved time, various otheralterations are possible.

In a state in which both schedule information and an application arereserved and stored in a prescribed time region of the watch object 400,when a current time reaches a start point of the time region, thecontroller 180 may automatically display schedule information in apop-up window. On the other hand, when there is a touch input to aprescribed time region of the watch object 400, the controller 180 mayexecute a corresponding application.

Alternatively, in a state in which both schedule information and anapplication are reserved and stored in a prescribed time region of thewatch object 400, when there is a short touch input to the prescribedtime region, the controller 180 may execute a corresponding application.When there is a long touch input to the prescribed time region, thecontroller 180 may display a sub menu related to the corresponding timeregion. Then, when a schedule information view item of the sub menu isselected, the controller 180 may display schedule information reservedin a corresponding time zone.

Meanwhile, upon selection of a completion item, a watch object 1306 for24 hours may be displayed on a lock screen or a standby screen asexemplarily illustrated in FIG. 13E.

Meanwhile, in the case where the user touches a time axis (for example,the vertical axis) in a watch object and drags the touched axis in, forexample, a given direction or in a circular path, the controller 180 maycontrol a time region displayed in the watch object so as to bevariable.

Specifically, in the case where the user touches the vertical axiscorresponding to 24:00 or the vertical axis corresponding to 12:00 in atime object and drags the time axis rightward or in clockwise, thecontroller 180 may vary a time of at least one of a right region and aleft region of the time object 1304 on the basis of the vertical axis.

For example, in the case where the user touches the vertical axis of thewatch object 1304 corresponding to a point of 24:00 and drags thevertical axis rightward or in clockwise, on the basis of the verticalaxis, the right region of the watch object 1304 may represent anafternoon time region of the current day (a region between 12:00 and24:00) and the left region may represent a morning time region of thenext day (a region between 0:00 and 12:00). In this way, in addition tothe current day, a time region of the next day may be displayed.

On the other hand, when the user touches the point of 24:00 once moreand drags the point rightward, the right region of the watch object 1304may represent a morning time region of the next day (a region from 0:00to 12:00) and the left region may represent an afternoon time region ofthe next day (a region from 12:00 to 24:00). In this way, retrieval of atime region of the day after the current day may be simply implemented.

The above-described time region retrieval function may be applied to a12-hour watch object, in addition to the 24-hour watch object 1304.

Simultaneously with performing the above-described time retrieval,setting schedule information or related applications with respect to aspecific time region is possible.

Meanwhile, when the user designates two points in a watch object usingtwo fingers 205 a and 205 b in a state in which a setting screen asexemplarily illustrated in FIG. 13F is displayed, the controller 180 mayset a region between the two points to, for example, a schedule region.Then, the controller 180 may set schedule information or a relatedapplication with respect to the set region. This will be described belowwith reference to FIGS. 13F to 13I.

FIG. 13F illustrates setting of a region in a watch object.

As exemplarily illustrated in FIG. 13F, when the user designates twopoints Pa and Pb (for example, a point of 9:00 and a point of 11:00) ina watch object using two fingers 205 a and 205 b, a region between thetwo points may be set to a schedule region 1360.

Meanwhile, in a state in which the schedule region 1360 has been set,when there is a touch input to the corresponding schedule region 1360 asexemplarily illustrated in FIG. 13G, a schedule setting screen 1370 asexemplarily illustrated in FIG. 13H may be displayed.

The schedule screen 1370 may include, for example, a schedule title andcontent item 1371, a schedule repetition setting item 1372, a repetitionperiod setting item 1373, an application list 1374 including a busapplication item 1378, a toss item 1377, and a completion item 1379.

Schedule repetition setting may be implemented via the schedulerepetition setting item 1372, and an application to be executed in acorresponding time region 1360 a may be set via selection of theapplication in the application list 1374.

In addition, a schedule of the user of the mobile terminal 100 may betransmitted to other users via the toss item 1377. In particular,schedule information with respect to the corresponding time region 1360a may be transmitted to other users. In this way, the user can sharetheir schedule information with others.

On the other hand, upon selection of the toss item 1377, in addition tothe schedule information with respect to the corresponding time region1360 a, related application item information may be transmitted. In thisway, the user can share the related application information as well astheir schedule information with others.

For example, in the case where a shared application is a phone callapplication or an SNS application, a toss function enables automatedexecution of a corresponding application between different users. Inthis way, rapid execution of the related application between the usersis possible.

Meanwhile, the user can receive schedule information, or both scheduleinformation and application information from other users. Based on auser approval, the controller 180 may control schedule information orboth schedule information and application information received fromother users so as to be reflected in a corresponding time region of awatch object 1308 thereof.

Meanwhile, when the completion item 1379 is selected, as exemplarilyillustrated in FIG. 13I, a bus application item 1365 a associated withthe corresponding time region 1360 a may be displayed.

Next, when a completion item 1342 of FIG. 13I is selected, the settingitem ends and setting in a home screen, a standby screen, or a lockscreen is completed. Thereby, a watch object in which a region between9:00 and 11:00 is associated with a bus application item may bedisplayed.

Meanwhile, when the grid position correction item 1330 is selected fromthe setting screen, the controller 180 may control correction in theposition of a grid. This will be described below with reference to FIGS.13J to 13L.

FIG. 13J illustrates that the grid position correction item 1330 isselected from the setting screen including a watch object 1309. In thisway, movement of a region in the watch object 1309 is possible.

FIG. 13K illustrates the case where the user's finger 205 inputs a longclick to a region 1361 a between 6:00 and 8:00 in the watch object 1309.In this way, movement of a region in the watch object 1309 is possible.

Meanwhile, when the user inputs a long click to the region 1361 a in thewatch object 1309 and thereafter drags the region 1361 a upward, thecontroller 180 controls a schedule so as to be moved to a time regioncorresponding to a dragged position.

FIG. 13L illustrates that the user 205 inputs a long click to the region1361 a between 6:00 and 8:00 and thereafter drags the region 1361 aupward.

Thereby, a region 1361 b between 9:00 and 11:00 is newly set. Inparticular, the region 1361 a between 6:00 and 8:00 is moved and set tothe region 1361 b between 9:00 and 11:00.

That is, schedule information and an application item set in the region1361 a between 6:00 and 8:00 are moved to and set in the region 1361 bbetween 9:00 and 11:00. In this way, schedule information and the likemay be simply moved to a desired time region.

Meanwhile, when the grid size correction item 1332 is selected from thesetting screen, the controller 180 may control correction in the size ofa grid. This will be described below with reference to FIGS. 13M to 13O.

FIG. 13M illustrates that the grid size correction item 1332 is selectedfrom the setting screen including the watch object 1309. In this way,change in the size of a region in the watch object 1309 is possible.

FIG. 13N illustrates the case where the user's finger 205 inputs a longclick to the region 1361 a between 6:00 and 8:00 in the watch object1309. In this way, change in the size of a region in the watch object1309 is possible.

Meanwhile, in the case where the user inputs a long click to the region1361 a in the watch object 1309 and thereafter drags any one point inthe region 1361 a upward, the controller 180 controls the region 1361 aso as to be increased to a point corresponding to a dragged position.

FIG. 13O illustrates that the user's finger 205 inputs a long click to apoint of 8:00 in the region 1361 a and thereafter drags the pointupward.

As such, a region 1361 c between 6:00 and 10:00 is newly set. That is,the size of the region 1361 c is increased.

That is, schedule information and an application item set in the region1361 a between 6:00 and 8:00 of FIG. 13N are also set in the increasedregion 1361 c between 6:00 and 10:00. In this way, a region may besimply changed in size to a desired time region.

FIGS. 13P to 13R illustrate another exemplary schedule setting withrespect to a prescribed region in a watch object.

First, as exemplarily illustrated in FIG. 13P, when the user touches andspreads two points Pa and Pb (a point of 9:00 and a point of 10:00) in awatch object 1420 using two fingers 205 a and 205 b in a state in whicha setting screen is displayed, the controller 180 may control display ofan enlarged watch object as exemplarily illustrated in FIG. 13Q. Asexemplarily illustrated in FIG. 13Q, only a portion of the enlargedwatch object is displayed. In particular, the watch object may beenlarged about the touched two points (the point of 9:00 and the pointof 10:00).

At this time, the controller 180 may highlight a partial time region (aregion between 9:00 and 10:00).

On the other hand, when the user touches, for example, a pointrepresenting a 10:00 region of a partial time region and drags the pointin a direction toward a 11:00 region, the controller 180 may control ahighlight target time region so as to be increased from a region between9:00 and 10:00 to a region between 9:00 and 11:00.

In conclusion, as exemplarily illustrated in FIG. 13Q, setting of a timeregion in the watch object 1420 may be more precisely implemented.

Meanwhile, when a completion item is selected after completion ofsetting as exemplarily illustrated in FIG. 13R, the mobile terminal 100may return to the screen of FIG. 13P. Thereafter, schedule informationor a related application with respect to the set time region may be setin response to a user input.

Meanwhile, in addition to the toss item 811 in the setting screen ofFIG. 8D or the toss item 1377 in the setting screen of FIG. 13H, when aschedule information transmission item is selected in a state in which aconversation window is displayed, the controller 180 may controltransmission of schedule information to another user. This will bedescribed below with reference to FIGS. 14A to 14G.

FIG. 14A illustrates that an SNS application is executed and anapplication screen including a conversation window 1410 is displayed onthe display unit 151.

At this time, in addition to the conversation window 1410, anapplication list related to a schedule may be displayed below theconversation window 1410.

When the user wishes to transmit schedule information through theconversation window 1410 while having a talk with another user, the usermay select a related application item 1412 from the application list.

The related application item 1412 may be an application item related toa watch object as described above.

When the related application item 1412 is selected, the controller 180may perform screen switching from the displayed conversation window soas to display a screen including the watch object 1420 as exemplarilyillustrated in FIG. 14B.

Then, when the user's finger 205 touches a region 1430 a of the watchobject 1420 in which a schedule is set, schedule informationcorresponding to the region 1430 a may be selected as scheduleinformation to be transmitted to another user.

In this way, as exemplarily illustrated in FIG. 14C, an object 1442representing selected schedule information may be displayed on theconversation window 1410. That is, the mobile terminal 100 may performwireless transmission of selected schedule information to a terminal ofa conversation partner.

Meanwhile, the transmission target schedule information may include timeinformation and application information corresponding to the timeinformation.

The object 1422 that represents the selected schedule information mayinclude a watch icon representing a schedule time as exemplarilyillustrated in FIG. 14C. In this way, the user of the mobile terminal100 may simply check sketchy time information of the transmittedschedule information.

In the case where the terminal of the conversation partner is a tabletPC, as exemplarily illustrated in FIG. 14D, a region 1515 between 9:00and 11:00 may be displayed in a highlighted state on a schedule screenof the tablet PC.

That is, when one user approves reception of schedule informationtransmitted from the other user, the user can add the scheduleinformation to their schedule. In this way, different users can simplyshare their schedule information.

Meanwhile, the controller 180 may control a watch object and a calendarobject so as to be displayed together. In particular, when a specificdate of the calendar object is selected, the controller 180 may controlcorresponding schedule information so as to be displayed in the watchobject.

FIG. 14E illustrates that a conversation window 1410 b is displayed on amobile terminal 100 b of a second user who is a conversation partner ofa first user who owns the mobile terminal 100 as illustrated in FIG.14C.

When the mobile terminal 100 b of the second user receives scheduleinformation as the selected schedule information is transmitted asillustrated in FIG. 14C, the conversation window 1410 b of the mobileterminal 100 b of the second user may display an object 1442 brepresenting reception of the schedule information as illustrated inFIG. 14E.

At this time, the object 1442 b representing reception of scheduleinformation may include a watch icon representing a schedule time. Inthis way, the second user can simply check sketchy time information ofthe transmitted schedule information.

Meanwhile, when the mobile terminal 100 b of the second user receivesschedule information as the selected schedule information is transmittedas illustrated in FIG. 14C, the schedule information of the first usermay be automatically reflected in a watch object of the second user.

For example, when the user's finger 205 b inputs a touch to the object1442 b representing reception of schedule information, a watch object1460 b of FIG. 14G may be displayed.

As exemplarily illustrated in FIG. 14G, in addition to scheduleinformation (between 6:00 to 7:00 and between 1:00 and 2:00) of thesecond user, schedule information 1460 a of the first user may be addedto the watch object 1460 b displayed on the mobile terminal 100 b of thesecond user.

FIG. 14G illustrates that the schedule information 1460 a includes timeinformation corresponding to a region between 9:00 and 11:00 and anexecution target application item 1465 a related to the correspondingtime region.

In this way, according to transmission and reception of scheduleinformation, sharing of schedule information between a plurality ofusers and, more particularly, between mobile terminals used by aplurality of users is possible.

Meanwhile, when the mobile terminal 100 b of the second user receivesschedule information as the selected schedule information is transmittedas illustrated in FIG. 14C, schedule information of the first user maybe manually reflected in a watch object of the second user.

For example, when the mobile terminal 100 b of the second user receivesschedule information as the selected schedule information is transmittedas illustrated in FIG. 14C, as exemplarily illustrated in FIG. 14F, anobject 1443 b that represents acceptance or rejection with respect tothe received schedule information may be displayed on the mobileterminal 100 b of the second user.

When an acceptance item 1444 b in the object 1443 b is selected, a watchobject 1460 b may be displayed as exemplarily illustrated in FIG. 14G.

As the object 1443 b is displayed, the second user may reflect only adesired schedule in the watch object 1460 b.

Meanwhile, when a current time reaches 9:00 after reflection of theschedule information 1460 a, the schedule information may be displayedon the mobile terminal 100 b of the second user illustrated in FIG. 14G,or a traffic related application corresponding to the application item1465 a may be executed to display an application screen on the mobileterminal 100 b.

With sharing of schedule information as described above, otherelectronic devices or external devices may be controlled to execute arelated application. At this time, in addition to mobile terminals, theelectronic devices or external devices may be, for example, a TV, an airconditioner, a washing machine, a cooking appliance, a robot cleaner, atemperature adjustment device in a building, a lighting device in abuilding, and a gas supply device.

For example, based on schedule information transmitted from the mobileterminal, a TV, an air conditioner, a washing machine, a cookingappliance, a robot cleaner, a temperature adjustment device in abuilding, alighting device in a building, and a gas supply device may bepowered on or powered off.

In another example, a recording application is included in scheduleinformation and transmitted to a TV, the TV may automatically record abroadcast of a specific channel at a corresponding time after receivingthe corresponding schedule information.

In another example, when a cleaning application is included in scheduleinformation and transmitted to a robot cleaner, the robot cleaner mayperform cleaning in a building according to a preset course and time.

In a further example, a temperature adjustment application is includedin schedule information and transmitted to a temperature adjustmentdevice, the temperature adjustment device may perform temperatureadjustment according to a preset temperature and time.

FIGS. 15A and 15B illustrate a screen including a watch object and acalendar object.

At this time, the screen may be a lock screen or a standby screen.Alternatively, the screen may be a home screen.

FIG. 15A illustrates one example of a watch object 1600 a and a calendarobject 1630.

The calendar object 1630 may exemplify a month based calendar. On theother hand, the watch object 1600 a may display schedule information onthe basis of a specific date in the calendar object 1630.

FIG. 15A illustrates the watch object 1600 a including scheduleinformation with respect to a 27th item 1632 in the calendar object1630.

The watch object 1600 a illustrates that first schedule information anda related application item 1615 a are included in a first region 1610 abetween 7:00 and 8:00 and second schedule information and a relatedapplication item 1625 a are included in a second region 1620 a between9:00 and 12:00.

FIG. 15B illustrates another example of a watch object 1600 b and thecalendar object 1630.

The watch object 1600 b as exemplarily illustrated in FIG. 15B includesschedule information with respect to a 29th item 1634 in the calendarobject 1630. In response to user selection or upon change of a date, thewatch object 1600 b as illustrated in FIG. 15B may be displayed.

The watch object 1600 b illustrates that schedule information and arelated application item 1615 b are included in a region between 5:00and 7:00 and schedule information and a related application item 1625 bare included in a region 1620 b between 9:00 and 11:00.

Meanwhile, the controller 180 may control schedule information withrespect to a watch object so as to be synchronized with an applicationand to be displayed.

FIG. 16 illustrates the case where the watch object 400 is displayed onthe mobile terminal 100 and the case where a schedule relatedapplication screen 1660 is displayed on the mobile terminal 100.

The watch object 400 and a schedule related application may be separateapplications. When the watch object 400 and the schedule relatedapplication are set so as to be synchronized with each other, the watchobject 400 and the schedule related application may share data in asynchronized state.

For example, when schedule information with respect to a specific dateis completely input through the schedule related application screen1660, the corresponding schedule information may be transmitted to thewatch object 400, thereby allowing the watch object 400 to display thecorresponding schedule information.

As exemplarily illustrated in FIG. 16, the schedule related applicationscreen 1660 includes a calendar object 1662 and a schedule object 1664.

After any one date of the calendar object 1662 is designated, the usercan input their schedule information with respect to each time zone inthe schedule object 1664. Then, after completion of input of theschedule information, the schedule information may be automaticallytransmitted to the watch object 400.
